725 Michigan Blvd., Pasadena, California. May 30th, 1935. Mr. H. E. Maule, Doubleday, Doran & Company, Garden City, New York. Dear Mr. Maule: Thank you for your letter of May 21st. I am glad you are going personally read Mr. Ritch’s poetry. I think people in Montana would like the little book and it is not too expen- sive, would sell well. I should like to place an order for ten copies of “Good Medicine”, sending nine copies to me here and one copy direct to Mr. W. D. Farranol, 5102 South Broadway, Los Angeles, California, bill- ing me for the ten copies. Is there any chance of you coming West this summer? I remember the little visit you made us at Lake McDonald years ago. Should you be in that vicinity again and I am there, I should like so much to have you come to the Camp. Kindly remember me to Mrs. Maule. Sincerely,
